The House of Representatives is seeking to separate the office of the Attorney General of the Federation from that of the Minister of Justice, stating that the separation will remove political interference in the operations of the Attorney General.

A bill which is meant to alter the 1999 constitution, to separate the two offices as sponsored by the Chief Whip of the Green Chambers, Mohammed Tahir Monguno scaled through second reading at Tuesday’s plenary of the house.

Hon. Monguno said he was sponsoring the bill based on his experience as a former Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Borno state, adding that at the moment too much power was vested on the Minister or Commissioner for Justice in combining the two offices.

He said the powers vested on the Attorney General, by the constitution are judicial in nature, and when exercised to the fullest can affect the rights of the people and therefore should not be subjected to political interference.

He stated that the Attorney General has the power to declare a noli presecu or discontinue a case already in court, adding that recent developments are suggestive of the fact that it should be isolated from political interference.

He said while the President will freely consider political affiliation while appointing the Minister of Justice, the appointment of the Attorney General should and will be based only on career progression.

Contributing to the debate, Hon. Ossai Nicholas Ossai said the bill was first passed by the 7th and 8th Assembly, adding that a particular office should not be vested with too much power.

The bill was referred to the house committee on Legislative Matters for further legislative actions.

Good journalism costs a lot of money, only good journalism can ensure the possibility of a good society, accountability democracy and a transparent government.
For continued free access to the best investigative journalism, we ask you to consider making a modest support to this noble profession.
